Lapua doesn't make any belted brass, never has
You need new or 1x fired ok?

Kevin Thomas said he has been trying for years to get Lapua to make belted brass...And he said, maybe soon. But for now, Nosler is going to be your best bet. Been running Nosler 7RM brass for years, great stuff.
Graf's has 1 box (50 pcs) in stock... And it's on sale. Only $1.39 each.

Midway has it in stock, too... If you want more than one box, I would shop Midway. Also, make sure that you call them, to make sure they're the same lot numbers.

You could use RWS brass. I've had better luck with it than Norma or Nosler.

no...I have plenty of brass...im just educating myself to whats out there....and I noticed that the premier brass manufacturers either dont make it or dont have any for sale...kinda weird...it is one popular round.
ya know im going to have to try that stuff out....****...it is spendy.
yeah...I like nosler brass....have shot a bunch through my 708....it is pretty good...

That isn't true, they made .300wm for a long time.

I don't shoot the 7RM anymore but I always had good luck with both Remington and Winchester brass and both are still available.
I still have a ton of Winchester 7mm STW brass and it's still going strong.
yep...I did.
I am going to need high quality 7 mag brass....and better dies and what not...
what I am trying to do is get my s.d. and e.s. in the low single digits... I am starting with the 243 then going on to the 7mm08 and then the 7 mag.
today I got my lapua brass and bergers for the 243, tonight im supposed to get the collet and bushing dies and I have the competition seating dies...
but I have to get the 243 figured out first..down the road I will work on the 7 mag
I have 100 pieces of Hornady brass and a boat load of Remington brass...I am looking for competition quality brass....I am trying to get the e.s. and s.d. down...
just looking for the best brass out there......and it seems the best dont make brass for my gun...

Start weight sorting and neck turning. Go for minimal neck tension, best achieved with either custom dies or bushing dies and then use a crimp die to put just a slight crimp right at the rim.
You'll be amazed at the results.

Not true-- they SOLD lapua belted magnum brass, not made it...they have never made any belted brass. There is actually some lapua stamped 7rm brass out there too-- made by Norma.
Norma made the brass for them and it was head stamped lapua but wasn't made by them.....just like alot of nosler brass is actually made by norma and then extra weight sorting and prep is done before its sold by nosler.
